Is this a leghorn? Pullet or Roo?

It has saddle feathers.

It’s a hen
There are no saddle feathers in any of those pics .

@Overo Mare what do you think?

@TheOddOneOut and @Overo Mare can you help?
I still think it's a cockerel!

Cockerel. Male specific saddles and red over wing bows are present.

Not a Leghorn, but may be a Leghorn cross.

For 20 weeks, I would expect to see more development of the pointy feathers. The brown slightly pointy looking feathers might just be the coloration.

Ehhh…they’re saddles. It’s a boy.

It’s a female, if it isn’t crowing by now, and has like no saddle feathers at all, it’s a female.

It has saddles and male specific coloration.

Not all males crow by 20 weeks either. @Poultrybonkers can attest to that for sure. Goodness their one Wyandotte had us guessing for what seemed like forever.

Um, mine often don't start crowing until around 20 to 25 weeks.

That’s what I was thinking too. Here’s a picture I found of the other. It’s not the best angle but I feel like there’s a distinct difference in the tail feathers. Same age.

I can see it’s a cockerel now, sorry.

I blame it on being on BYC 2 hours after general anesthesia…
